Description: Like almost any Pine, the sapwood is pale yellow to creamy with darker yellow-brownish stripes and the heartwood is darker reddish-pink with darker stripes. Endgrain has some pores and the wood may contain pockets of pitch inclusions.

Fun facts: Digger Pine is nowadays considered a ignorant name as it comes from ‘Digger’, the derogatory and insulting name given to California Indian people.
